This isn't a great book, but it isn't an awful book, either. Let me start by listing what I liked about the book.
- Magdalena Cruz, the heroine, is a former army nurse who lost part of a leg in Afghanistan. I liked the concept of a strong female character, and I liked the fact that she isn't magically healed. She struggles with her amputation, both emotionally and physically.
- Jake Dalton, the hero. Oh, how I loved him! He's the only doctor for a 30 mile radius, and his compassion and kindness with his patients and everyone else in his life is wonderful to read. I love that he isn't an over the top alpha asshole like so many Harlequin lead male characters.
What I didn't like:
- The heroine has a stupid, long held grudge against the hero's family because of a debt her father had to his father that she believes led to her father's death. Now, Jake and his brothers were children when this happened, so it is beyond stupid for her to hold them responsible for something that they had no part of. This aspect almost made me stop reading the book.
